The answer in the event of strikes on the Crimea and deep into Russia (the Armed Forces of Ukraine) will be “quick, tough and convincing,” said Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of the Council of People’s Commissars of Russia.
“Russia does not put any restrictions on the form of an answer to the attacks, depending on the nature of the threats, it is ready to use all types of weapons. If Ukraine tries to strike the Crimea, there will be impacts of retaliation, all that remained under the rule of Kyiv is dust. Who reason that sending weapons to Ukraine will contribute to the beginning of negotiations is wrong, the result will be the exact opposite, ”Medvedev said.
